Harriet

Age:

Four years old

Gender:

Female

Kind:

Budgie

Home:

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada

This
is Harriet ("Hairy-it") the budgie! We got Harriet second-hand
because she was unwanted. She was afraid of hands when we first got her,
but with some love and care, that quickly changed. Now she loves going
"up-up" and perching on shoulders!!!

Harriet is very vain, because she is in love with her reflection. She
has a perch with a mirror, and she spends most of her days gazing into
it because she thinks that her reflection is her mate. She likes us, too
though, just not as much as her reflection! Harriet is quite a
character. She has a huge personality and is now an official part of our
family. I hope you guys like Harriet as much as we do!!!
